Gotta call complete and utter bullshit on that one "Mr. Absolute Truth".

Well, believe what you want but your presidential candidate is the one flogging the bible and constitution combo deal, lol.

Yeah, let's MAKE America pray again. That's what government are for; forcing religion down our throat.

They don't need new legislation when there's already arcane laws from the 1800s banning abortion outright. Trump accomplished it by stuffing the Supreme Court leading to Roe being overturned so now those laws apply again.

You're not fooling anyone Doc.

So what's Trump going to do about abortion then? Does he have the guts to go against his base?

I thought abortion was a State issue, not Federal.

Again, both are just expressing their personal beliefs.

No legislation changes are being proposed (Zappa reference).

I responded only to the ridiculous Zappa reference....

Christian nationalists believe the U.S. and state governments should operate and legislate according to their interpretation of the Bible, and that only Christians who share their political and religious worldview should control the reins of power. While many right-wing activists seek to downplay or obfuscate their Christian nationalist agenda, Feucht has been very open about his intentions, reiterating his desire to see “God in control of the government” while standing outside the Wisconsin state capitol.

Later in the worship service, Republican state Rep. Chuck Wichgers appeared on stage, where he praised those who had gathered to pray for helping him fight the “demons” at work within the capitol.

“When it comes to this building, there’s demons in those walls,” Wichgers told the crowd. “The only way they go away is by this [prayer]. That’s the only way. And when you’re not here, those demons are laughing at you for not being here. They’re saying, ‘Go away, we’ll give you the laws that you want, we’ll violate the 10 Commandments, we’ll do whatever it takes to make you guys think you’re happy.’”

Christians are willing to even sacrifice their own beliefs to establish a theocracy.

Yeah, Christians want to shove their religion down your throat that much.
